TORONTO, ONTARIO, April 3, 2006 —Van
Morrison, one of music's most unique and timeless
artists, performed in Nashville for the first time on March
7. The historic concert at the Ryman Auditorium was
part of a brief U.S. tour in support of his new
album, Pay the Devil, and featured a blend of Morrison's original music and interpretations of classic country music.

Hank Neuberger, Grammy-winning producer from Chicago's
Third Wave Productions, recorded the concert for video
producers Three on the Tree and acclaimed
director Danny Clinch using the H2-PRO Microphone from Holophone®, the leading manufacturer of surround microphones.

"Our challenge was to get great audience feedback,"
Neuberger explained. "We had no seat kills available
to us and very limited options as to how to hang microphones.
So we simply put the Holophone on a standard
microphone tripod stand and put it right near the
front of house console, which is in the balcony.

"We were interested in capturing the impact, clarity,
punch and persuasiveness of the audience," Neuberger
continued, "and the H2-PRO was very impressive. Veteran
audio mixers who work in the Ryman also said they
were genuinely impressed with the quality of that
audience capture—they had never heard the Ryman
audience sound that good. In fact, they called in
other local engineers specifically to hear the
audience through the Holophone." Holophone provides the most
accurate and comprehensive capture of the
ambiance of a crowded concert hall, Neuberger concluded.
"The best word I would use to describe the H2-PRO
is persuasive," he said. "I've struggled
with spaced pairs in post production, to make them work
in a convincing manner. Holophone has solved that problem
for us. It is always persuasive; it always puts you
right there."
